    Yall Bootsy fans are funny. He ducked Spence(once) and Crawf(2x). Then turned down Vergil. Only fought weak@ss Stanionis then moved up after claiming he wanted to be undisputed at ww.

    And he already made 1.6 for his fight with Sasaki and could be upwards of 2mill based on his 70% guaranteed %of the Japanese ppv. Ppv sales are trending passed 700k

      This is the same thing wilder did to joshua btw. Media blitz claiming he was being ducked while turning the #1 guy down and career high offers. Don't let it happen again folks. Be better or be best as Melania says
      Exactly, Norman Jr. turned down $1.7 million to fight Ennis and took a lesser opponent for less money — that’s a clear duck, not “saving him for last.” Same playbook Wilder used on Joshua, making noise about being ducked while walking away from real offers. Don’t fall for it.

        Joshua DID duck Wilder. Joshua had a 50m guarantee in hand for a Wilder fight and turned it down. The deal Wilder turned down would have required him to fight that idiot bum Dillian Whyte first, and then Joshua lost his next fight anyway.

          Wilder actually had a contract sent to him.

            A contract that wouldn't have actually delivered him a Joshua fight had he signed it, because it was a two-fight deal with Whyte first and then Joshua lost to Ruiz.

            Eddie Hearn himself admitted that the deal Wilder's handler offered Joshua prior that was legitimate. Hearn ruined the fight because he insisted on signing Wilder up to be a DAZN guy.

                Agree to disagree? That's a factual description of the events that took place. That's like saying you disagree that the earth is a sphere or you disagree that 1+1=2.

                    Norman and his team priced themselves out of the Boots fight because they never had any intentions on unifying.

                    His team was never going to allow him in a unfavorable fight right after winning the title. They were always going to do what their doing now, fighting crucially flawed fighters with pretty records. That's just how you promote a fighter and get maximum value.

                      This is precisely why boxing sucks (bar the Saudis), Dana White wouldn't allow this shit to fly in the UFC and would've FORCED them to fight before one of them left the division (just like Crawford-Spence could've been a different fight prior to Spence's car crash and hard partying).
